Paul Mescal and Josh O’Connor star in this nostalgic, aching romance, lifting a profound story of yearning in exquisitely tender performances. Interweaving timeless folk tunes with sumptuous, autumnal images, director Oliver Hermanus chronicles a love whose reverberations are felt for a lifetime.

Startling stories of cartel crime and class tension in Mexico are deftly, elliptically interwoven in this exceptional debut from Natalia López Gallardo. Previously an editor for Lisandro Alonso and Carlos Reygadas, she won the Silver Bear Jury Prize in Berlin for this urgent, unshakeable drama.

Giving imaginative weight to emotional baggage, this uniquely surreal comedy upholsters disaffection in off-yellow tones and deadpan humor. Brilliant performances from an all-star cast—Ewan McGregor, in particular—bring captivating poignancy to an absurdist allegory of how family ties fray and mend.
